This was a strange little doughy number. I had such high hopes for this recipe because, well, butter, cream cheese, nutella -- what's not to like? I was really disappointed in the end product, however. The little crescents tasted too much like bland dough and nothing else. My nutella-loving daughter tried them and said they were "just alright." She only ate two, and after two days I've now thrown the rest out. Ultimately, for me, these weren't worth the effort or the calories (If I want to indulge in a sweet treat, I want it to be spectacular. These weren't.

Hello and Hafa Adai from the beautiful island of Guam, U.S.A., "Where Americas Day Begins!" I've used numerous of your recipes in the past and I'm happy to review that they all have passed my "picky palate." This recipe was easy and works well with both sweet & savory fillings. I prepared three batches, the first with Nutella, the second with Orange Marmalade and the last with left over BBQ steak (we love BBQ'ing here on island ...all which came out delicious! Also, I love that most of your recipes contain ingredients that are common pantry and fridge foods! We have been cheering you on since your debut on Food Network. Thanks Melissa!

Positively to 'die for'. Light and flaky and once you get to the Nutella you've gone to Heaven.

The more I make these pasteries, the more varieties I see. The Nutella is my favorite, but I sometimes add 1 tsp vanilla/almond extract to the pastry for added flavor, especially almond w/ chocolate. There's an American hazelnut spread now (Easier on $. & a mocha flavor. I tried caramel dip & it worked/taste great. But I'm still having trouble w/ preserves/jam (Don't use jelly, too watery.. On 1/2 prepared the seal breaks & the preserves spreads all over the baking sheet. Any idea to prevent?

I read many of the other reviews before making these. This is a delish cookie, but maybe you should avoid making them on a warm summer day. I needed to return the dough to the refrigerator several times to keep things cool.
I found it is a very fine line between over mixing and mixing so little that you end up with "wet" patches in the dough.
The recipe says "lightly flour" your rolling surface, I found heavy flouring was needed.
The scant teaspoon of nutella was a spot on suggestion from the reviews. I also found, as some others, no water was needed to seal the edges of the dough.
I like sweet, so sprinkled the cookies heavily with cinnamon/sugar. I did not alter the dough.
This is a wonderful cookie, I did find the dough a little challenging to work with, but definitely worth the effort.

This pastry is wonderful. Soft, flaky, and easy! I can see being able to use this with a wide variety of fillings, both sweet and savory.

These were so good! We have about 15 extras and they will go great in my kids lunch for a treat. My family adored these and they were easy. These cost me about $3.30 and made about 30 little pochettes. $1.00 worth of butter, $1.00 worth of Nutella, $1.25 for cream cheese and some cents for flour. Worth every penny! Thanks Melissa!
